Abstract:A method was developed for separation, preconcentration, and determination of La by its radioactive isotope 138 La using an HPGe detector. The method was checked by comparison with ICP-MS. The detection limit (minimum detection activity) is 1.46 and 1.52 Bq kg -1 at 788.4 and 1435.8 keV lines, respectively. The Th(IV) and U(VI) are separated by precipitation. To separate Ac(III), it is extracted jointly with REEs from 0.1 M HNO 3 with HDEHP and then stripped with 0.2 M HNO 3 , with REEs remaining in the organi… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
